The cyber security company claims that malicious Trojans are hidden on Yahoo's online ad trading platform.

 

ScanSafe, a famous network security company, has recently been tested and found that a large number of malicious trojan programs have been hidden in Yahoo's "Right Media" online ad trading platform, if a user clicks these malicious advertisements, the trojan will "Dive" into the user's computer and cause serious consequences, and even cause the user's computer system to crash. In fact, as early as last month, ScanSafe found similar situations on websites with large clicks such as MySpace, Photobucket, and Bebo, but this time the situation of Yahoo is more serious.

ScanSafe found that the malicious trojan program on Yahoo's "Right Media" platform has been clicked by users for millions of times, moreover, these malware will have a serious impact on computers that do not install Microsoft's latest system patches, but users with complete system patches can avoid being infected. Due to the potential impact of Virus-carrying advertisements on users, ScanSafe has included Yahoo's "Right Media" platform in "high-risk network" areas, and submitted relevant reports to Yahoo. It is reported that this malicious trojan program mainly infected users' computers by exploiting Microsoft Internet Explorer's "Macromedia Flash" File Vulnerability. Microsoft released related patches as early as February this year, to prevent viruses and trojans from being infected, ScanSafe recommends that you download patches immediately.
